Keys locked in my Compact.. Help!

[Jhonno]

Yes I'm a tit.. Only 1 set also.. How can I get in with minimal damage? Deadlocks are not on.. Damn my bootlock playing up!

[bss325i]

Where are the keys? Ignition or else where?

[Jhonno]

In the boot..

Sacrifice a rear lamp?

[bss325i]

Thats exactly what i was going to say.

[penton08]

nooooo..... not the lamp!! it is about the only part i dont have, do a window or the boot lock

[DanThe]

Unless you can fish the keys through the small bulb hole you wont get very far by breaking the lamp

You need a snap on entry kit. Small air bag in the door jam and inflate. Then huck on he door handle. They are great.

[E30BeemerLad]

you don't need that spare wheel well really Dan

[kev76]

i ordered a spare key from bmw for my e39 it took 2 days to come if thats a option. it was the grey one (cheapest) about 20 quid if you can wait that long

[Dezzy]

They are underneath in a cage though dude

[Kos]

brick, window, autoglass £60 and if they have it in stock they can fix it tomorrow

a key with out the ews can be had in a few hours from the dealers. its only the chip that has to come from germany i think

[kev76]

if you do go for a key you will need your logbook and other forms of id with your adress on

[harry_p]

numberplate off, holesaw through the boot, when youre done weld a plate on the inside and seal and paint it. it'll never show as long as you keep a numberplate on

[The_Haywood]

get one of the snap on lock out kits and pump up the drivers side section of the boot to gain access to the wires that run into the boot... one of these is the wire for the solenoid for the boot... put a 12v charge to it and it should pop the boot

[harry_p]

the boots aren't on a solenoid, you have to push the lock button in like on an e30.

[The_Haywood]

aaaah fail

in that case... i'd try goin in from the top of the door... pump open the top and use a wire coat hanger to hook the door latch

[DanThe]

Done it yet?

[maxfield]

Bend the door back. Worked for me a few times.

[maxfield]

Forget that, the doors are pillarless aren't they?

[bss325i]

Doors are not pillarless and the EWS keys all have the chip as part of the key, not a separate item.

Dan, You didn't leave your straighteners in the boot did you? The horror!

[Jhonno]

I have sorted this.. New key ordered from BMW, came ready cut today, luckily the locks are original.

£35 for a new key, but all windows intact, and seems evident I needed a spare anyway

[Jhonno]

P.S.. Bog off Dave. My hair is naturally shit, I don't have to put any effort into making it look this bad

[Rav335uk]

NOpe, that's you Dezzy, caught last year a santa pod

[Dezzy]

It's a good angle that mate. Thanks for sharing. I didn't realise you had a private collection of me. What do you use them for?

[Rav335uk]

Dartboard
